HD is officially Dead!
HD DeadJohn Porcaro, a senior group manager in Microsoft's Global Games Marketing Team, notes on the company's Gamerscore blog that "as a result of recent decisions made by Toshiba, Hollywood studios and retailers, Microsoft plans to withdraw from HD DVD. Xbox will no longer manufacture new HD DVD players for the Xbox 360, but we will continue to provide standard product and warranty support for all Xbox 360 HD DVD players in the market."
